Martin Johnson - Heavy lyrics

[Verse 1] I fought a battle, I fought a war I felt the rain on my face Sometimes to find what you're looking for You've gotta learn from your worst mistakes [Verse 2] I made a wish on a satellite That I mistook for a star Guess when you build up to break down You find out who you really are [Chorus] How did it all get so heavy? I used to stand up so tall There's only so much I can carry before I fall And they tell me, "girl you're so lucky" "You've got the world in your hands" But you know the world gets so heavy You don't understand and that's heavy [Verse 3] Just tell me, what's the intention? Is it to fall in love? I tried to find a connection Between how it is and how it was [Verse 4] I made a promise I couldn't keep Another story to tell You swear to god that you know me But I don't, don't even know myself [Chorus] How did it all get so heavy? I used to stand up so tall There's only so much I can carry before I fall And they tell me, "girl you're so lucky" "You've got the world in your hands" But you know the world gets so heavy You don't understand and that's heavy [Bridge] Sometimes I lay awake in bed at night I close my eyes and all I see is see the dreams I used to dream about when I was younger I wonder where I took the path of no return I might've lost my way a hundred times But no I never ever lost the hunger Oh, and I know every cut And every stitch and every scar I know they've gotten me this far They only made me tough, they made me stronger But when it's hard to breathe And I just can't get off the floor I long for days when I was free A life I lived so long before [Chorus] How did it all get so heavy? I used to stand up so tall There's only so much I can carry before I fall And they tell me, "girl you're so lucky" "You've got the world in your hands" But you know the world gets so heavy You don't understand and that's heavy, heavy
